Teacher Training and Support

Teachers Will Save The Country

Research shows that 80% of classroom teachers do not possess the skills to use the school’s technology as learning tools. Research also shows that when teachers are provided with relevant computer training their teaching methods improve, lesson plans become more engaging to students and student achievement improves.

Let BTE show you how our Professional Development solution can effectively improve teacher productivity and student learning with the least amount of time and resources required from teachers.

By assessing teacher’s current skill levels and providing a prescriptive approach to teacher training we quickly and easily create a unique learning road map for each teacher. We do not send teachers on-line or to a college or university to get these new skills. We send a qualified and experienced Professional Development instructor with classroom experience and a background in adult learning theory to deliver periodic teacher specific technology lessons at your school using the equipment your teachers have access to. This approach provides basic tool introduction, understanding the place for the 10 major technology areas in a teacher’s tool bag, and how to start conceptualizing how the tools can be used with a classroom lesson and how best to integrate technology into the classroom curriculum.

If you have a staff of 10 or a staff of 100, BTE can provide the level of support you need to get your teachers to the next level.

“I have been teaching for over 25 years. In that time I have attended dozens of training sessions and in-services. The BTE training I received is by far the best training I have ever received. I now feel confident to use technology at my school and I cannot wait to see how my students respond to these amazing learning tools. I just want to thank BTE for providing such a family like environment and not making me feel inadequate but for bringing my skills to a whole new level.”

Thank you! Your team did an outstanding job. The teachers loved learning about Google docs. You should have heard the exclamations of "YES!!!" during the presentations.

The presentation lesson was a success. The entire school has learned so much from the BTE program. Each year the students are more knowledgeable with computers and terminology. Thank you.
